A  bright-night-kitchen moth and the washcloth that I use
For  the refuse
 That is littering  all of your clues
Orion  is dead and gone but something  in it still be-longs  to me
 The bright  night I see
High  hot-time all the braggarts drag
 Their boats  down to the water
She  dragged down to drown each and every
Brown  rag I bought her
The  silverfish they ditch their skins as
 The Saturday  air raid beg-ins
Pitching  exoskeletons
Revolting  in their molting
Dont  you know Im just like that?
You  can tell where Ive been at
On  every doormat I have sat
 A relic  so an-gelic
Oh  the once hard-biting night
 Now ruthlessly  a toothless sight to see
A  shot down Telegraph with a hot laugh as we cruise
Through  the sinews
Connecting  all of your clues
The  blinds they clap for the
 The napping overheated  tangles
Daytime  may climb high until the dusk sucks out
 All that it mangles
Melting  with the blacktop moms
 On a bed  of palms and psalms
Immersed  in the universe
 Of off-ramp  proms and sitcoms
Sylvan  Lake and in between
Perpetually  like Halloween
 I saw you
In  the dormitory with the warming glory
 Of the harvest
The  pilings of the night are whiling out
 Where their forms  are the largest

Feeling  about half as vicious
As  all the silverfishes crawl
If  I truly am a coward
Memory-fueled  and fear-powered
Ill be damned
 But if  I were
 That gorgeous blur
Id be
Sure

A  bright-night-kitchen moth and the washcloth that I use
For  the refuse
 That is littering  all of your clues
Tripped  up on the alley-weed
Through  which I elbowed and kneed
 The bottle  of my beer emptied
 And I  was warm and fluid
The  body is a bottle, I guess
That  I would like to throttle, yes
Mottled  skin and spilling sin
 And a holiness  so stupid
 The heaven  that I long to see
 The undone  linearity
 Ive pro- ven
Is  all the love Ive tried to show
Buried  where those buildings glow
 And ruined?
